2 nano's, 2 computers,how to share music

my daughter and i both have nano's. so farwe have used only my computer to download music, plugging both nano's into this computer. now she has her own. is there a way to let her keep her songs when she plugs into her own computer, other than copying to a disk? i've bought all the songs, but i have to buy them for her since she's young, but she will wnat to use her own equipment now.

you have to set ipod to "disk use" in order to use the ipod on two different computers. to do this go to ipod prefences. doing this however you also must set to manual update. you can no longer just autoupdate your ipod, you have to drag songs from the library onto the side panel where it says for example "chris' ipod." also you must manual eject the ipod. you can do this by clicking the little triangle next to the ipod name

  • HT1203 iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer - I tried to use the instructions to configure 2 different windows users sharing the same iTunes library.  I could not get this to work per the instructions.

    I tried to configure 2 windows users accounts using a single library per the instructions in HT1203.  My iTunes library is on an external drive.  I cannot get this to work.  Any suggestions?

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.

    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

    I would like to know how to share Music installed in Time Capsule.. I need that this music could be played in Iphone, Ipad, Apple TV in the same WIFI network

    It is not possible.. the TC is not a media player.
    You must have a computer acting as itunes server.. although there is no such thing. Apple call it home share.

    It is possible to store the itunes library on the TC but that makes no difference .. you still need a computer of some sort turned on to play it.

    It is almost as if the program does not exist on my computer. If I search for it, the only thing that comes up is the installer. I cannot find it anywhere despite the fact I have installed it numerous times, uninstalled it and conducted a fresh install, and the Adobe website checks says that it is installed.

  • HT202213 my nano and my computer will not share music

    I can't get my nano and my computer to share music.  The computer tells me they are synched but none of my new music is transferring to the nano.  Does anyone have an answer?

    Hi sharhop,
    If your iPod nano appears to not be syncing with your computer, I recommend checking out this article:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Set up syncing for iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12313
    If you are syncing manually, try automatically, or if you are syncing automatically, try manually to see if you get different results.

  • How to Share music between two libraries / Apple ID's?

    So my boyfriend and I have moved in together and will soon be utilizing the same computer. I have an Apple ID and music library, he has an Apple ID and music library. I would like to create a separate login to the computer so we can still keep our separate ID's / libraries for syncing purposes (making sure we each have our own Calendars, Contacts, Photos, etc...) but would like to Share music with one another and be able to add it to our iPhone's without having to buy or download it twice.
    A couple of things below
    What's the easiest way to transfer all of my current information to his computer? External hard drive?
    What's the easiest way to share music and / or apps while keeping individual Apple ID's?
    Will the Home Sharing option work here?
    OR, will we have to create a new Apple ID, transfer our information to that new ID, and create two separate libraries off of that?
    Any and all advice is appreciated. Trying to make this as easy and painless as possible

    Thanks so much identd! So with that first option, we won't have to double download the music correct? I just want to make sure it's not taking up too much space on our computer either. It will always be updated b/c the iTunes library folder's will be public now correct?

  • Itunes on 2 computers - how to transfer music from one to other to upload

    Hi -
    Sorry about this, but I am new to itunes. I have itunes set up on 2 computers and want to upload both itunes onto my nano. Since I can only sync with one computer - how do I transfer those files from the other computer to the one that I upload from? I don't want to loose my music and I don't want to copy all of it onto cd's either - way too many. I am sure there is an easy way to do this, I just can't find out how to. Any help would be AWESOME.
    Thanks for your assistance.

    If you don't have enough room on your iPod to move all of your music in one shot, you can network them and share your iTunes Music folder, then simply add the music to your iTunes library.
    BTW - You've posted in the iTunes For Mac forum. You'll probably get more detailed answers from the Using iTunes for Windows forum.
    Hope this helps,
